The Shared Unique Number (SUN) System helps students identify courses that will directly transfer among Arizona's community colleges and three public universities. Using the SUN System, students can easily search for and enroll in courses that offer direct equivalency at other Arizona colleges and universities. SUN courses have their own unique course number and prefix listed alongside each college's course number.

All meetings for in-person classes are completed in a face-to-face format at the designated class location(s).

Online classes are conducted via the Internet through a learning management system, and use new and emerging technologies.

Independent Study classes do not require classroom meetings. Students will self-reliantly learn using materials and communications with an instructor.

Flex Start classes are short-term classes (less than 16 weeks) that are designed to allow for flexible scheduling and accelerated completion toward earning a degree or certificate.

Honors classes are designed to enhance the intellectual experience of students. Students who have met the Honors Program requirements are eligible to enroll in honors classes and require written approval from the Honors Program Office.
